How To Make deviled eggs for grandkids

  • Step 1
    Cut a thin slice from the bottom of each egg so it sits flat. Cut a zigzag pattern a third down from the top of each egg. Carefully remove yolks and I add the thin slice of whites place in a small bowl; mash with a fork; Add the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper & paprika, stir until well blended.
  • Step 2
    Spoon yolk mixture into the white bottoms; replace tops.
  • Step 3
    Slice the pickles in thin slices for eyes. I carved out a small indention in the middle & placed a small piece of red pepper. Cut small triangles from red pepper for beaks. Press the eyes and beaks into egg filling. There you have little peeps.
